Mum saw me trying to buy needles, razor blades and salt. I said I was doing science and now we're having a intervention for "my drug problem".... Thanks Roman
well if you combine H2 with O2 it will boom more :D otherwise if you only light a bottle of Hydrogen up it will cause a massive fireball, but not an explosion...
You should NEVER do that using a glass container: you'll end up with an explosive mixture of hydrogen and oxygen in that container, so you have quite an important likelihood of a backfire that will make the container explode. If it is made of glass, the explosion will cause glass shrapnel, which can be deadly. (a colleague of mine took a glass shrapnel to the throat a few months ago, and almost died of what was otherwise a very minor explosion) Plastic is much safer for this.
Itzmist the bit of silicone tubing going to the glass jar passes right through the big hydrogen/oxygen bubble in the plastic bottle. If that detonate, I wouldn't trust too much that weak silicone tubing to resist it and keep its content from detonating too. And placing explosive mixtures in glass containers in general is a bad idea. Backfire is only one way this can go wrong, there's also the risk of having a short between the electrodes, etc...
he added salt, so instead of hydrogen+oxygen it makes hydrogen+chlorine gas+sodium-hydroxide. The second stage converts the chlorine gas into hydrochloric acid and the sodium-hydroxide will heat the water. It's why the water looks so yellow in the introduction. Outside of drinking the water, pouring it on your eyes, or huffing the minute amount of chlorine gas that escapes, handling the razor blades are the most dangerous part.
Shadi2 Making chlorine as the majoritary product of your electrolysis requires pretty much saturated NaCl. Regardless, hydrogen & chlorine is just as explosive as hydrogen & oxygen.
A few thoughts. Thought 1, is if the blades were vertical, the bubbles would flow to the top faster. By separating from your plates, your plates once again come in contact with your electrolyte and can begin making the next bubble. Second thought is about voltage efficiency. The ideal voltage is between 2 and 2.5 volts, as you drop down below that voltage the production drops off. As you raise above ideal, you still get more bubbles, but, in addition, more heat is produced. The further away from ideal, give you less and less efficiency. If you have 5 volt source, you should use a neutral plate (plenty of google explanations). So, plate 1 is positive, plate 2 is not attached to anything, plate 3 is negative, then repeat. The 5 volt total difference is broken down to two separate segments of 2.5 volts. Obviously your goal is not to make the most effective industrial grade tool, but, with very minor tweaks to your design you can improve efficiency. Since there are fewer connections, its actually slightly less work as a side benefit.
3rd thought is about safety. Flow the bubbles through an additional container, so in the event of an explosion that does travel up your tube, the explosion will be contained before entering your bigger container with potentially more hydrogen and oxygen in them. 4th, place the metal plates at the bottom of the water. Will eliminate the need to refill as often.
1. What you are generating is a mixtureo use of H2 + 02 in a 2:1 voluminar ratio. 2.For pure Hydrogen gas, you have to use a bottle with caustic soda solution into which aluminium pieces are added. This arrangement will work giving good volumes of gas at low pressure. However, be careful to avoid flame. Once I had an explosion, when I was experimenting as a kid. The bottle burst and corrosive alkali was splattered around the house. The Aluminium gets converted into a highly viscous gelatinous salt called sodium-meta-aluminate. 3. I wish you come up with a design that separates the cathode and anode using some membrane that can withstand temperatures of 100 degrees + because at higher currents the water heats up as well. 4. You must not put a great deal of salt in the water. A pinch of salt in 1 litre is more than sufficient for conduction. If you use more salt, you are actually generating Hydrogen along with chlorine at the anode. The water will turn alkaline as the sodium ions will react with water to form NaOH. The chlorine will generate at anode and corrode the electrode. So you have to use carbon electrodes.
Washing soda can also be used and it's much safer than NaOH or KOH. Especially if the solution is hot. Hot caustic soda solution literally obliterates anything organic almost instantly.
And, when he says anything organic, he means your hands, your face, your eyes etc.... Also, baking soda works, a convenient source of washing soda is dishwasher detergent.
yes your absolutely correct I use to do the same thing. use plastic soda bottle fill half way with water and carefully using funnel put in 1 tbls lye or sodium hydroxide it may get warm so have a bath of cold water on hand to cool it off then crumple up small pieces of aluminum foil about 10 put them all in then make sure the lip of the bottle is clean and dry stretch balloon over neck and watch it inflate with hydrogen you may want to hold the Ballon neck till inflated. it is a good idea to blow up the Ballon beforehand to stretch it.
this is probably the closes to truth though, he had a small flame on the end of a nozzle in the thumbnail wich isnt too far off from what he did so ill give him that this one time
+Gammer Gaming No....the original comment in this comment thread about his mom catching him was posted two days ago by someone else. I'm not talking about the video.
this project also produce a gass called cl or chloride and is a toxic gass used in the cleaning industry. so if you would make this project use it ONLY outside
I would make it to generate the hydrogen and oxygen to separate sections to be mixed at the tip. - Just like a real oxy/acetylene torch. Sodium carbonate might be better electrolyte. I thought of making a setup with the carbons from batteries such that the container would float and when certain amount of gas is generated the carbons would be lifted out of the electrolyte. The weight of the containers would provide pressure .... etc. Your setup could blow up pretty easily.
well,it's not. It's a hydrogen and chlorine generator. The solution in the first jar where the blade stack is in is salt water, the electrolysis generates mixture of hydrogen and chlorine gas. While in the tall bottle the chlorine gas dissolves and reacts with water, leave only hydrogen gas to the needle. Without the water bottle in the middle, the whole thing would explode.

I'm pretty sure he's a Russian himself. Just check out his accent. Roman isn't a nationality in this case it is actually a pretty common Russian male name.
Thanks man. I've been looking for a good scaled down model of this to build. It's a weird science because technically, you could have stuck the metal rod at the end directly into the power supply to make it glow red. It's making large amounts that we need. Can you now use a 12 volt bicycle pump to compress the hydrogen into a container, for use say, on in small motors or explosions ?
+Anderson Pyaban incorrect. Neat hydrogen can't power an internal combustion engine or electricity generator it's used as a secondary fuel to make the mixture of gas and atomised fuel in the cylinder more volatile. This means engines can run leaner and still run at a healthy rate of complete combustion.
It is powered by electricity. Hydrogen gas and oxygen gas are produced or generated. The hydrogen and oxygen are burned to produce the flame. But, the original power is the electricity which could be coal, natural gas, or solar.
This is not a safe setup. It generates hydrogen & oxygen together. In the wrong concentration hydrogen & oxygen together is extremely explosive. Fair enough if you want to generate hydrogen, but you need to do it with an apparatus that separates the hydrogen & oxygen. Mixing the two is stupid in the extreme...
that is what the second bottle is for. The gas bubbles through the liquid and if the hydrogen explodes and goes up the tube it does not go right into where it is being produced, but instead is stopped at the second water bottle.
its definetly a "wrong" concentration because there are always 2 H and 1 O created, even though a bit more H would be more effective. But it s also the right concentration because it has to react again and mixed it s faster than with O from the air
Awesome work. This is inspirational for me to make something like that. Would be great to make a soldering iron for using in soldering microchips or as a hot air gun that does not directly connect to electricity. Adding too much salt will make your flash-arrestor (clean water bottle) build up HCl eventually. There is clearly Sodium colloidals that would be making NaOH on your electrolysis jar. A drop of lime or vinegar instead would also help the electrolysis while slowing any discoloration due to waste chemical build up - since those are organic acids; which are slow to react since they are large molecules. Just my two cents.. Simply, I think you have put a little too much salt to the jar.
It's a hydrogen/oxygen mixture, since both his cathode and anode aren't separated. He could also be producing chlorine as well, considering how much salt he put in the solution.
Milos Prnjic and he will also be building up sodium on one set of plates. pretty unnecessary. overly complex it seems. unless the bubbling mechanism serves as a valve to prevent the flame backing up into the main gas chamber and causing explosion
Totally thought this video was about separating hydrogen and oxygen, but he made no attempt to separate the two gasses, just made a combustible mixture of both. So lazy. Why not separate the electrodes and cover them so that the oxygen and hydrogen are split into two different containers??
Made one of these for my highschool science fair about six years ago. It worked, yes. However my principle wasn't too fond of the idea of having a hydrogen bomb in his cafeteria.......I was almost expelled to say the least >.< I made another one for a county fair demonstration two years ago. At the end, I explained why you shouldn't make one and engaged a pre-created short in the system and it exploded violently enough that the metal shed it was in exploded and the windows on a minivan 100ft away shattered. Don't make one unless you want to die or know EXACTLY what you're doing.

Well hydrogen bomb works on different principles -- here you get "Brown gas" which although an explosive but has nothing even close to "hydrogen bomb". "Hydrogen bomb" requires to squeeze atoms so close that starts "fusion reaction" which is very volatile produces temperatures close to the center of the sun and releases enormous amount of energy.
kael starwynd I am 15 years old and a similar thing happened to me, I was making this with glass jars, and I knew that you shouldn't have much space between the level of water and the top of the jar of the bubbler so that there wouldn't be much gas in there in case that the fire gets inside the bubbler (I had about a centimeter of space) , but when I fired the flame, at first it worked for a few seconds but then the flame got in the bubbler and that little bit of gas that was in there was enough to blow the sealed metal top of the jar off with a loud BANG and bend it! my mom rushed in screaming and said every single curse word that she knows of, but I was ok. THANKFULLY I didn't have much gas in the top of the bubbler, otherwise the glass jar could've exploded shattering glass everywhere... I'm not going to make this again until I recover from this traumatic experience, and until I learn more about this setup.
It’s safe just have precautions for blowback. And micro bubbles are safer as the reaction to usuall chain through the water. Hydrogen is fine. Stored hydrogen in a vessel with no blowback protection is dangerous
Рома. Можно обойтись без барботера. Достаточно в шприц запихнуть металическую губку, например для мытья посуды или мелкую стружку. За счет высокой удельной теплоемкости - она успевает поглотить все тепло огня и взрыва не происходит!))
Oh c'mon, if there was oxygen it would explode, the hydrogen by itself burns nicely and the lack of oxygen prevents it from exploding! If you know shit about how this works then shut up!!!!
hydrogen by itself cant explode! H2 ---> H2 | 2 H2 + 02 --> 2 H2O you cant burn (oxidize) anything without oxygen. the 33% of oxygen in the gas mixture helps the reaction to go faster, than with the oxygen in the air. of course it explodes, because hydrogen is highly flamable. why do you think he lets the gas mixture run through water before burning it? it is only the velocity of the gas and the "nozzle" wich keeps the flame from going inside the tube and the bottle :)
They are essentially the same thing according to wikipedia ^^. Also, using sodium chloride as an electrolyte is a very bad idea. It releases dangerous chlorine gas. This apparatus also won't last very long, because of the metal corrosion.
Yes!! Or wind. Usually at my house if the sun ain't shining the wind is blowing. This has been on my mind for a while. I can not afford the equipment nor would I know for certain how to assemble it and know for certain it would not blow up As in storing the hydrogen. And then there is about 5K for an electrical generator.
***** That has been my one of my biggest concerns. The safety aspect. Hydrogen can be purchased commercially right? Some one has already solved that problem. My question is how.
***** a polymer piston or diagram pump would be best overall, as metals can create sparks.. but, on the other hand, a polymer plastic will create static charges..... better grounded no matter the system used.
Dont store it if made using this method. This method produces hydrogen and oxigen (HHO, two dihydrogen molecules and one dioxigen molecule from two water molecules) to store it you would need a electrolysis cell with the anode and cathode separated, then run the hydrogen and oxigen through a catalytic convertor to make the small amounts of the other gass (oxigen in the hydrogen hose, hydrogen in the oxigen hose) react and form water, then run the gasses throught a dessicator (Silica gel, CaCl2, NaOH, etc) to remove the water and then you can safelly compress it. This is because water cant be compressed, so it would mess up your tank, and if you let the hydrogen and oxigen in the same tank, they can react causing an explosdion. Also if you use NaCl, if the voltage is too high, you will generate Cl2, something you do not want to happen, so using NaOH is better.
+Daniel Kisker It couldn't burn back to the generator because there is no oxygen in the needle or the piping or even the generator itself. If it could then the same would happen with flamethrowers, they would just explode. It's bullshit!
the razors as you connect them, behaves like a pF/ tens of pF capacitor in open air ;). with a coil, a big wire antenna and a diode one can obtain a small radio. :)

7 лет назад
Я делал кипятильник из лезвий и спичек -- работало, но не долго на 220В. Не приятным сюрпризом была ситуация когда нас школьников отправили в колхоз помогать со сбором урожая. Испытанная многократно модель кипятильника "выбила" предохранители в здании -- соленность воды в сельской местности (Северный Казахстан) из под крана сильно отличалась от городской воды (Алма-Ата). Но как говорится все познается в сравнении и метод "научного тыка" позволил сделать не мало открытий.
As many folks put it correctly, the gas accumulating in the plastic bottle is a mixture of H2 and O2. The plastic bottle is potentially explosive and dangerous. The reason it does not explode in this video is because of the very small diameter of the needle. Since there is such a concept as 'minimum flame size', the flame cannot advance into the needle. But if you use a slightly wider pipe and set the gas alight, the whole plastic bottle will explode.
yeah, this is "browns gas" you can actually do a pure H2 if you have a solid siphon tube connecting the two containers via water, release the O2 into the air, pump the H2 into a tube and burn it.... btw this is kindof a fun but pointless experiment, since the energy you would use to separate the hydrogen from 02 is going to be less than the work hydrogen does in whatever heat engine you put it in.
Gostei do vídeo e da extrema criatividade com simplicidade. Me inscrevi antes de terminar de ver o vídeo. Parabéns. I liked the video and extreme creativity with simplicity. I signed up before you finish watching the video. Congratulations.
I can appreciate that you didnt use one of those typical noisy shit songs like everybody does... Made me actually watch the whole video! Keep them coming !
Use something smaller for a bubbler because with such a huge bottle you will have a huge pressure drop. Second, Place your electrodes vertically, your gas flow will be much better. Also, use NaOH instead of NaCl .
Using graphite is a much better option that razor blades and likely cheaper if yo know how to split pencils. Set in a nice group with epoxy or locktite vertically and wired at the top would make more hydrogen too.
you only need voltage on the outer 2 blades, the rest get voltage thru the salt water. go ahead, pull the wires off the middle ones, then power em up while in the water and test the voltage.
Nice try, good tutorial BUT: the product of the hydrolysis is Hydroxy which is highly flammable and potentialy dangerous as it can explode.If you add a flamecatcher after your hydroxy tank you increase your chance of ...not having a bad day.
Gary:hey Jerry what did you do today Jerry:oh you know made a blow torch out of 10 razor blades a ruler a knife and another blow torch...you know the normal stuff Gary:﴾͡๏̯͡๏﴿ O'RLY?
This circuit lacks a fuse which is a vital safety precaution. Always use it. Also as the bubbler is used as flash arrestor, an aquarium stone will be an added safety feature.
If you have too much room in the second bottle, then start the reaction you will have a mix of hydrogen and air in the bottle and coming though the tube. If you light the end at this time, the whole thing will explode. I did this once when I was young.
Razor Blades & Syringes... sigh... Carefull handling those. One side only needed be soldered. Glass is a shattering choice. This device probably did not last long, due to corrosion. Pretty neat for a very temporary tool, elsewise frequent repair would be required without more permanent fixes like gold and platinum connections. Maybe a glass anode.

The first one is called a fuel cell.
It is powered by electricity. Hydrogen gas and oxygen gas are produced or generated. The hydrogen and oxygen are burned to produce the flame. But, the original power is the electricity which could be coal, natural gas, or solar.
This is not a safe setup. It generates hydrogen & oxygen together. In the wrong concentration hydrogen & oxygen together is extremely explosive. Fair enough if you want to generate hydrogen, but you need to do it with an apparatus that separates the hydrogen & oxygen. Mixing the two is stupid in the extreme...
that is what the second bottle is for. The gas bubbles through the liquid and if the hydrogen explodes and goes up the tube it does not go right into where it is being produced, but instead is stopped at the second water bottle.
Science is experimentation, he's experimenting.
its definetly a "wrong" concentration because there are always 2 H and 1 O created, even though a bit more H would be more effective. But it s also the right concentration because it has to react again and mixed it s faster than with O from the air
very nice, I also enjoyed the music too. Better then most music I run in to on youtube.
Awesome work. This is inspirational for me to make something like that. Would be great to make a soldering iron for using in soldering microchips or as a hot air gun that does not directly connect to electricity.
Adding too much salt will make your flash-arrestor (clean water bottle) build up HCl eventually. There is clearly Sodium colloidals that would be making NaOH on your electrolysis jar.
A drop of lime or vinegar instead would also help the electrolysis while slowing any discoloration due to waste chemical build up - since those are organic acids; which are slow to react since they are large molecules.
Just my two cents..
Simply, I think you have put a little too much salt to the jar.
Thats´s fucking amazing :D Thumbs up, Roman :) You are awesome mate :D
Of course you can :)

Next video how to make a hydrogen bomb
Nyffy just compresse the gas and then stand back and light it
to start the fusion reaction of hydrogen bomb.first collect some uranium to make a nuclear fission... that is essential😁
Nyffy Highway to Heaven
Nyffy nb
Hydrogen/oxygen bomb maybe.
i keep wondering, did you hurt your finger during in anyway during the making of this?? XD
I love watching your videos Roman and I do this kind of stuff in my electronics lab at my parents home.
Made one of these about 5 years ago! Should have filmed it and made a fortune in YT
Aaaaand then he slices his arm in 3
fuck u
I was thinking the same thing. I'd never survive to make this video!
ah let its slide... :D
correct me if im wrong but ist this not pure hydrogen?
It's a hydrogen/oxygen mixture, since both his cathode and anode aren't separated. He could also be producing chlorine as well, considering how much salt he put in the solution.
Milos Prnjic and he will also be building up sodium on one set of plates. pretty unnecessary. overly complex it seems. unless the bubbling mechanism serves as a valve to prevent the flame backing up into the main gas chamber and causing explosion
Dang
Totally thought this video was about separating hydrogen and oxygen, but he made no attempt to separate the two gasses, just made a combustible mixture of both. So lazy. Why not separate the electrodes and cover them so that the oxygen and hydrogen are split into two different containers??
Made one of these for my highschool science fair about six years ago. It worked, yes. However my principle wasn't too fond of the idea of having a hydrogen bomb in his cafeteria.......I was almost expelled to say the least >.<
I made another one for a county fair demonstration two years ago. At the end, I explained why you shouldn't make one and engaged a pre-created short in the system and it exploded violently enough that the metal shed it was in exploded and the windows on a minivan 100ft away shattered.
Don't make one unless you want to die or know EXACTLY what you're doing.
Well hydrogen bomb works on different principles -- here you get "Brown gas" which although an explosive but has nothing even close to "hydrogen bomb".
"Hydrogen bomb" requires to squeeze atoms so close that starts "fusion reaction" which is very volatile produces temperatures close to the center of the sun and releases enormous amount of energy.
kael starwynd I am 15 years old and a similar thing happened to me, I was making this with glass jars, and I knew that you shouldn't have much space between the level of water and the top of the jar of the bubbler so that there wouldn't be much gas in there in case that the fire gets inside the bubbler (I had about a centimeter of space) , but when I fired the flame, at first it worked for a few seconds but then the flame got in the bubbler and that little bit of gas that was in there was enough to blow the sealed metal top of the jar off with a loud BANG and bend it!
my mom rushed in screaming and said every single curse word that she knows of, but I was ok. THANKFULLY I didn't have much gas in the top of the bubbler, otherwise the glass jar could've exploded shattering glass everywhere...
I'm not going to make this again until I recover from this traumatic experience, and until I learn more about this setup.
razer blades! super idea!! so mini and so effectful! great! thnx for your inspiration!
I come here to listen to the music. Oh, and the projects are cool too!
DIY hydrogen at home. Sealed with hot glue. What could possibly go wrong...
It’s safe just have precautions for blowback. And micro bubbles are safer as the reaction to usuall chain through the water. Hydrogen is fine. Stored hydrogen in a vessel with no blowback protection is dangerous
@@Relaxationdeepsleep When you just blow up yourself, it's ok. But please don't talk about safety.
Lemme just whip my IV set out real quick
AF Bennett 2 iv sets actually*literally every single Slavic you tuber just has these things laying around.
this is not safe as it also produces chlorine from the salt
fair warning .no one listen .I do ...goedendag
+georgio jansen you can do it safer with sodium hydroxide or citric acid or even vinegar instead of salt if you can stand the smell... tot ziens
+Aseki Bekovy I was working at Akzo salt where they make chlorine..very scary..Thanks for the better alternatives so others can read it. ...goedendag
no worries
people being probe for info in russian jails will hardly smell

hot glue ia going to melt when it heats in use... use epoxy...
THIS IS NOT HYDROGEN IT IS HHO
hydrogen by itself explodes
I thought you needed oxygen to burn
Oh c'mon, if there was oxygen it would explode, the hydrogen by itself burns nicely and the lack of oxygen prevents it from exploding!
If you know shit about how this works then shut up!!!!
If handeled properly, Oxyhydrogen gas burns stable and very hot. Look it up on RUclips
DON'T BE IGNORANT IN ALL CAPS!
just saying....
hydrogen by itself cant explode!
H2 ---> H2 |
2 H2 + 02 --> 2 H2O
you cant burn (oxidize) anything without oxygen.
the 33% of oxygen in the gas mixture helps the reaction to go faster, than with the oxygen in the air.
of course it explodes, because hydrogen is highly flamable. why do you think he lets the gas mixture run through water before burning it?
it is only the velocity of the gas and the "nozzle" wich keeps the flame from going inside the tube and the bottle :)
Thats actually not a Hydrogen generator, it generates only Hydroxy (a mixture Hydrogen-Oxygen)
They are essentially the same thing according to wikipedia ^^. Also, using sodium chloride as an electrolyte is a very bad idea. It releases dangerous chlorine gas. This apparatus also won't last very long, because of the metal corrosion.
Wouldnt it be Oxigenhydride?
No because they are not bonded, they are just in the presence of one another. This mixture is explosive, but when combusted, it forms water.
Ever seen a space shuttle launch? Liquid Hydrogen mixing with O2 in the atmosphere. Sure "it just makes water" but it explodes!!!
I literally said that it was explosive before i said that it forms water when combusted...
Cool video, I'd like to point out the second bottle is important for safety. Without it a flame could flashback into the actual generator and explode.
I add Chocolate to the periodic table of the elements, yet the bus stop remains dark at noon
Or you can just buy a can of propane from walmart for 2 dollars. And have a more controlled, safer, hotter, more portable, useful torch.
Tengu TV Hi
Tengu TV wheres the fun in that?
noone will ever cut his fingers in redoing that.
now make a rocket to the moon
one its not a hydrogen generator two it generates a gas not a liquid
You do know that hydrogen IS a gas at room temperatures, don't you?
This rig generates both hydrogen and oxygen from water, which is H2O.
I'm with ya buddy! Although, we might need to scale it up a lil. Also, blair ladds is an imbicile!
thank you...i had only read about electrolysis in books....way more cool to see it....
i like the idea, the realisation, and the style the video is made.
thanks, subscribed
we need to hang out bro
use solar power source and ya got something here.
Yes!! Or wind. Usually at my house if the sun ain't shining the wind is blowing.
This has been on my mind for a while.
I can not afford the equipment nor would I know for certain how to assemble it and know for certain it would not blow up As in storing the hydrogen.
And then there is about 5K for an electrical generator.
*****
That has been my one of my biggest concerns. The safety aspect.
Hydrogen can be purchased commercially
right? Some one has already solved that problem. My question is how.
***** a polymer piston or diagram pump would be best overall, as metals can create sparks.. but, on the other hand, a polymer plastic will create static charges..... better grounded no matter the system used.
Can't tell me the ancients did not know this, as they used electrolysis for plating gold on everything.
Dont store it if made using this method. This method produces hydrogen and oxigen (HHO, two dihydrogen molecules and one dioxigen molecule from two water molecules) to store it you would need a electrolysis cell with the anode and cathode separated, then run the hydrogen and oxigen through a catalytic convertor to make the small amounts of the other gass (oxigen in the hydrogen hose, hydrogen in the oxigen hose) react and form water, then run the gasses throught a dessicator (Silica gel, CaCl2, NaOH, etc) to remove the water and then you can safelly compress it.
This is because water cant be compressed, so it would mess up your tank, and if you let the hydrogen and oxigen in the same tank, they can react causing an explosdion.
Also if you use NaCl, if the voltage is too high, you will generate Cl2, something you do not want to happen, so using NaOH is better.
Why did you use the second bottle? To cool it down or to purify it?
I have the same question.
prevent it from burning back into the generator
+Daniel Kisker It couldn't burn back to the generator because there is no oxygen in the needle or the piping or even the generator itself. If it could then the same would happen with flamethrowers, they would just explode. It's bullshit!
Well depending on the salt u use.
Bubbler which acts as a flashback arrester.
Thanks for sharing. I wonder how long this would run for, and how it would do scaled up. Interesting..
the razors as you connect them, behaves like a pF/ tens of pF capacitor in open air ;). with a coil, a big wire antenna and a diode one can obtain a small radio. :)
Позор родителей...не знать что зазоры стандартно делаются с помощью спичек.
Я делал кипятильник из лезвий и спичек -- работало, но не долго на 220В. Не приятным сюрпризом была ситуация когда нас школьников отправили в колхоз помогать со сбором урожая. Испытанная многократно модель кипятильника "выбила" предохранители в здании -- соленность воды в сельской местности (Северный Казахстан) из под крана сильно отличалась от городской воды (Алма-Ата). Но как говорится все познается в сравнении и метод "научного тыка" позволил сделать не мало открытий.
Veld Van Helsing где он падло эти лезвия взял ?
John Dreamer На 220 точно не долго. Тут в солёной воде от пяти до двенадцати предлагают.

I think it needs a little more hot glue ... -.-
love all your videos I'm going to try to make one my version from your plans thanks a lot for the video keep it up bud
Bro you was try it please tell me
As many folks put it correctly, the gas accumulating in the plastic bottle is a mixture of H2 and O2. The plastic bottle is potentially explosive and dangerous.
The reason it does not explode in this video is because of the very small diameter of the needle. Since there is such a concept as 'minimum flame size', the flame cannot advance into the needle.
But if you use a slightly wider pipe and set the gas alight, the whole plastic bottle will explode.
where to get glass jar anyone can tell plz i am not getting where i live
If you cant find it in your country go on ebay
what will be the key word
steal Jam, jelly bottle from your breakfast table.
"mason jars" are popular and come in many different sizes.
Better use something else, glass is dangerous...
Were tf do you get all these sirings from
syringe*
really?
drug store
pharmacy* just saying. Farmacy sells vegetables.
Stan Pines Haha no problem. Nice country by the way, Romania is very nice.
I don't understand how you are not liberating oxygen as well.
HHO gas / BrownsGas /HydroOxy, m.m.
yeah, this is "browns gas" you can actually do a pure H2 if you have a solid siphon tube connecting the two containers via water, release the O2 into the air, pump the H2 into a tube and burn it.... btw this is kindof a fun but pointless experiment, since the energy you would use to separate the hydrogen from 02 is going to be less than the work hydrogen does in whatever heat engine you put it in.

Gostei do vídeo e da extrema criatividade com simplicidade. Me inscrevi antes de terminar de ver o vídeo. Parabéns.
I liked the video and extreme creativity with simplicity. I signed up before you finish watching the video. Congratulations.
I can appreciate that you didnt use one of those typical noisy shit songs like everybody does... Made me actually watch the whole video! Keep them coming !
You my friend are my current favorite mad Scientist! Cheers and nice work on the video. Thanks for the tips and idea! Rock on!
cool i see pontential that jewerllery makers going to use this for their fine solder work
Use something smaller for a bubbler because with such a huge bottle you will have a huge pressure drop. Second, Place your electrodes vertically, your gas flow will be much better. Also, use NaOH instead of NaCl .
Using graphite is a much better option that razor blades and likely cheaper if yo know how to split pencils. Set in a nice group with epoxy or locktite vertically and wired at the top would make more hydrogen too.
you only need voltage on the outer 2 blades, the rest get voltage thru the salt water. go ahead, pull the wires off the middle ones, then power em up while in the water and test the voltage.
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! BACKYARD SCIENCE
very nice ,simple very good thanks
Roman, consider making a play list for the great music you play in your videos.
It would be good exposure for the artists.
Nice demonstration, I like the background music too.
Nice try, good tutorial BUT: the product of the hydrolysis is Hydroxy which is highly flammable and potentialy dangerous as it can explode.If you add a flamecatcher after your hydroxy tank you increase your chance of ...not having a bad day.
Gary:hey Jerry what did you do today
Jerry:oh you know made a blow torch out of 10 razor blades a ruler a knife and another blow torch...you know the normal stuff
Gary:﴾͡๏̯͡๏﴿ O'RLY?
This circuit lacks a fuse which is a vital safety precaution. Always use it. Also as the bubbler is used as flash arrestor, an aquarium stone will be an added safety feature.
You dont need one, when the power supply sets on fire, you know its shorted.
Amazing. I'm going to give this a try.
Bro you was try it
Very nice video thank you brother
Crude but interesting. BTW, how many band aides did you go through making the generator LOL
instead of ruler you can use two identical plastic combs. It will allow equally space razors at no time.
Great video!
Thank you!
I'm on the cool side of RUclips again thank god
If you have too much room in the second bottle, then start the reaction you will have a mix of hydrogen and air in the bottle and coming though the tube. If you light the end at this time, the whole thing will explode. I did this once when I was young.
Razor Blades & Syringes... sigh... Carefull handling those.
One side only needed be soldered. Glass is a shattering choice. This device probably did not last long, due to corrosion. Pretty neat for a very temporary tool, elsewise frequent repair would be required without more permanent fixes like gold and platinum connections. Maybe a glass anode.
congrats for 1 million subs
